Dystopian Xmas Cue (Remake)

[johndalenow]

What do you think of this remake, Tom? https://soundcloud.com/john-dale-music/ ... ba7660d615

The waveform clearly shows three sections, and I also hear them. That in itself is not a bad thing, but I do think that the major shift in instrumentation and lushness after the first third does not help the track. I would try to keep the instrumentation and "feel" of the first part as much as possible and only subtly add more - such as strings, yes, but more in the backgrund.

HTH,
Tom

Thank you for your help, Tom. I will make a few adjustments. Best! John Dale

Hey John, well, you've gone from having four distinct pieces in this track, to having three. Haha, so I guess you're getting there!

I don't believe this listing asked for "3 act trailer style structure".... if it did, then I missed it. Unless specified otherwise, cues should always stick to one motif & emotion throughout.

EDIT: I didn't see the most recent uploads. Well, they're better, but still definitely "different" pieces. The lushness and overall vibe doesn't match the opening section (which, by the way, is still the strongest and has the most chance of success).

Again, it's just me, not Matt, but I think this is the best version so far, even though there still is the big break after the first 3rd.

The strings feel a little dry to me.

Thanks, Tom, and good luck to us both!
